Comprehensive Post-Accident Care

Ready to Treat All Injuries Including

At Dedicated Doctors, we take your post-accident care seriously because we know your injuries may not be fully addressed under traditional care. 

Long-term damage to the head and spine are especially common in auto accidents and you may continue to experience health issues long after the incident.

If you've been in an accident, contact our office in Bristol.
Whiplash

Care for Whiplash and Concussions

Your post-accident injuries may persist because the underlying structure of your body is often ignored in traditional medicine. This situation is especially true if you have suffered from whiplash, concussion, or other injuries.

Recently, new medical terms have acknowledged the kind of incomplete healing you may be experiencing.
  • Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS)
  • Whiplash Syndrome (WS)
  • Mild Traumatic Brain Injuries (MTBI)
  • Mild Head Injury (MHI)
Your residual health problems may linger for months, years, or even decades!

Evaluations for Muscle and Bone Damage

Dedicated Doctors will examine and evaluate you for damage to your musculoskeletal system (your muscles and bones).

These injuries often express themselves in what is commonly called "pinched nerves," which cause pain and muscle spasms throughout the body.
  • Neck and shoulders
  • Arms, wrists, and hands
  • Legs
  • Back
  • Face or head when moving, standing, or sitting for long periods of time
Pain may radiate to other parts of your body as well.
Headache

Treating Every Post-Accident Symptom

Your post-accident injuries may not be limited to the common symptoms listed above. A range of other issues may be affecting your health.
  • Headaches or mental dullness
  • Hearing and vision problems
  • Nervousness or insomnia
  • Anxiety or depression
  • Reduced joint motion
  • Constipation or diarrhea or other symptoms
Let Dedicated Doctors take a serious look at your injuries and lay out a treatment plan that works for you!

Full-Service Physical Therapy

Convenient Therapy Facility

Whether you've injured yourself in your favorite sport or someone has injured you in an accident, you can receive full-service physical therapy from Dedicated Doctors.

Our location in Bristol is fully equipped with the staff and equipment you need to restore your health and mobility. 

Because insurance is often involved in the cost of the referred care, please talk with us before your first visit so our staff can help you determine your coverage.

Therapy Treats a Range of Issues

Physical therapy may be recommended by your physician or by our doctors for a number of orthopedic conditions.
  • Pain reduction or elimination
  • Surgery preparation or recovery
  • Surgery avoidance or delay
  • Orthopedic surgery recovery
  • Mobility, balance, or normal gait restoration
  • Acute sports injury healing
  • Re-injury prevention
  • Future injury prevention through education
Our physical therapists are licensed professionals ready to work with you on injuries, disabilities, surgical recovery, or any other movement limitations you may have.

Find Your Therapy Goals Through Evaluation

Because it's important to establish both attainable short-term goals and a general long-term goal for your treatments, we will work with you and other medical professionals to evaluate your condition.

Progress toward your various goals will be communicated regularly, beginning with an evaluation of your health and fitness.
  • Strength and range of motion
  • Balance and coordination
  • Endurance
  • General fitness levels
  • Posture and gait (when needed)
Taken together with any instructions from your referring physician, your evaluation and goals will help us create a personalized road-to-recovery plan that aims to relieve your pain and restore your motor functions.

Many Treatments Available 

Your treatments may cover a range of approaches, all designed to address your particular condition. The approaches may change as you progress.
  • Heat or cold therapy
  • Massage
  • Ultrasound
  • Nerve stimulation
  • Splints to prevent or correct your injury
  • Bandages to control swelling
  • Traction
  • Exercises to stretch and strengthen muscles and to improve posture
  • Sensory re-education following injury to your nerves
  • Adaptive training in methods and equipment for the performance of your day-to-day life skills

Education and Coping Strategies Help

Part of your physical therapy will be educational as you learn how to avoid aggravating your existing injury and how to prevent further injury. For instance, you may learn how to wrap painful joints.

If you're an arthritis patient, you will learn coping strategies for living with reduced mobility and you will be given exercises designed to help keep your supporting muscles as strong as possible.

Your Dedication Makes the Difference

Dedicated Doctors can't give you a definitive answer regarding how long your physical therapy sessions will last, but experience has taught us that a lot depends on you and how seriously you take your plan.

If you keep up with your daily exercises and instructions between your appointments with us, you will make a lot more progress than if you wait until you get to our offices before you get to work!
